Indiana State Museum

Φανταστικό

Holy COW this museum was great! Firstly, it is organized chronologically, as opposed to most museums which are organized by genre/concept. This made it feel more akin to a journey through time in Indiana. The exhibits also included miniature images of the state with a pin placed to show where in Indiana each artifact was found! So cool! Certain exhibits, particularly fossils, also included sculpted casts by the information plaques, I'm assuming for blind visitors to "see" the exhibits with their hands. This was very neat as well! The facility was clean and the café (especially the customer service!!!) was great.

Leaving a review and shout out for Erica Montgomery, the Event Coordinator there. My Wife and I booked an area for our wedding last week and when I say Erica is the best, she is the best. From the communication, care, above and beyond effort, to the actual day of running back and forth bridging the gaps, her assistance was vital, appreciated, and treasured. She left no stone unturned and even provided us with ideas that made our day absolutely perfect. I can't thank her enough and to recommend the ISM for your special day. Again, thank you to ISM and thank you to Erica for being a Core Memory of ours for a lifetime. Highly recommended.

Huge space. Staff is very kind. There is something for everyone. Kids have a lot of the 3rd floor. Basement is where you'll find mammoths and the large skeletons. Famous people from Indiana is cool too.

Loads of fun for the whole family or just a chill date. Lots of interactive activities and great exhibits

Museums are my thing so while visiting Indianapolis I decided to experience the Indianapolis State Museum. One of the things that stuck out to me is how interactive it is. Not only are you reading and viewing but also indulging in trivia,games and activities. Great place for families as this keeps kids interested. The museum is in a park which adds to the ambiance. Also included inside is an IMAX theater which I had the pleasure of viewing a film.

A fun place for kids to have fun and learn. My kids loved the special exhibit where they could make anything they wanted with cardboard. They spent over an hour letting their creativity take over. They made several different cardboard creations. I appreciate that the Museum validates parking. So if you’re wondering about parking know there is plenty of parking and it will be validated.
